Alright i was begged asked nicely to make a guide for you exchanging learners....
Just a word of warning: i'm not good at these things so don't expect much
Okies to break it down there are certain types of items:
Commons or store bought items:
These are bought from the store, paid by either Gaia cash, Gold or tickets.
Usually are found to be a bit harder to sell depending on their store price in the exchange compared to Donation items.(see further down)
In the exchange you will never get store price for an item.
Casino items:
Items bought by usuing tickets that you have won from gaia cards or sluts slots.
Donation items(now known as monthly collectables):
these items are one bought from users using a variety of methouds, paypal, visa, mail phone...you get the picture
At the start of every month an influx of sealed letters comes in.
the price of them on the first 4 days is unstable and drops.
its between the 4-10th of each month that the sealed letters are reasonably cheap and stable.
depending on the clues given ou around the 11th determins whether thre is 2-3 items inside.
on the 15th, the items inside are released.
Depending on the users response to the new items (whether they like them or not) determines whether the price increase or decrease.
Event items:
Event items are items that have a significance meaning of gaia storyline or history.
the main events that occur annually are:
the anual gaia ball
easter
halloween
christmas
But this year the mods introduced st. patrics day and april fools.
Usually collecting these they can increase in value with time.
Like antiques.
Quest items:
with the intorduction of gaian quests, items usually are involved from sponsership.
for each part of a quest each account can get 3 of each item.
over a course of time the quest becomes disabled therefore you can no longer participate.
